Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 787 Isn't this kind of thing too wicked?

In the next few days, Liu Xie lingered like a mangy dog ​​in the Nanyang thatched cottage.What's interesting is that Liu Xie really wanted to sleep with Zhuge Liang on the same couch and discuss important family and country affairs, but Zhuge Liang would unceremoniously expel Liu Xie every time, saying that he was afraid that Liu Xie would also have the traditional Longyang of the Han emperor. good.

At that moment, Liu Xie felt very wronged.Even, at that moment, he thought of the Ah Q described by Lu Xun: Why is the monk... no, why can Liu Bei and you Zhuge Liang sleep well, but I can't?If you really want to talk about the habit of breaking sleeves, the relationship between Liu Bei and Guan Zhang in the early years is more suspicious than Liu Xie.

However, in desperation, Liu Xie could only order Bai Ma Yicong to set up a military tent next to the thatched cottage, and live next to Zhuge Liang.When Zhuge Liang came out to tend the flowers and plants in the courtyard every day, he could also see Liu Xie practicing martial arts under Zhao Yun's guidance. The two basically nodded at each other, and then went about their business.

When the war in Shuchuan was raging and the clouds in Jiangdong were cloudy, Nanyang, a place that can be said to determine the trend of the world, lived slowly and peacefully like flowing water.

Many times, Zhao Yun would be troubled, and couldn't help but ask Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, there are important matters on both sides of the Han Dynasty. Are we really going to waste time here? This little friend Zhuge, The last general also noticed that he has the talent to know the world, but is it true that apart from him, the affairs of the world cannot be handled?"

Liu Xie couldn't help but smile knowingly when he heard Zhao Yun say the term 'fixed', wiped off the hot sweat from practicing martial arts, and pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Xun Wenruo is now in Chang'an to take care of the overall situation; Xun Gongda also needs to take care of it." Military affairs; Zhong Yuanchang was transferred to Luoyang by me to revive the old capital; and Jia Huli was still busy attacking Yizhou on the Eastern Front. You said that these famous and powerful plotters in the Han Dynasty all have Who else can I send into Jiangdong if I have an important task in hand?"

Zhao Yun put away the dragon spear and was silent for a moment, then said: "Your Majesty has always dared to use newcomers since he succeeded to the throne. The last general in Guanshang Shutai, Mencius Du, is suave and eloquent, so he can take on this important task. Even Mencius Du The weight is slightly lighter, and Yangzhou Liang Ziyu can be the main envoy."

"Liang Xi and Meng Da?" Liu Xie glanced at Zhao Yun in surprise, and his face couldn't help being serious: "Could it be that Zilong thought that the Han Dynasty could really persuade the Sun family in Jiangdong to surrender by sending an extremely talented envoy?" The Han Dynasty? Jinyiwei has long since heard news that Zhou Yu in Jiangdong has stood up to everyone's opinions and pushed Sun Ce's second brother, Sun Quan, as the successor of the Sun family. If you have done all the important things, you will give up because of the words of the Han family envoys?"

"But didn't Zhuge Ziyu also say before that Zhou Gongjin is very likely to have a heart for the Han Dynasty? If we do nothing, it will make Jiangdong think that the Han Dynasty has regarded Jiangdong as a foreign country, and make them work harder. Self-preservation?"

Liu Xie sighed leisurely, feeling that Zhao Yun was really upright, selfless, tolerant and benevolent.It is a pity that it is Zhao Yun's quality that makes him only an excellent general, not a qualified politician: "Zilong, politics is always dirty and ugly, these are nothing. The important thing is Politics has its own unique rules, if you don't understand these rules, it's just wishful thinking, and in the end it will only backfire."

"From the perspective of etiquette and orthodoxy, the Han Dynasty is the Zhengshuo Dynasty, and the Sun family in Jiangdong is just a subject. Cao Cao's military violations can only be submitted to the court for arbitration by the court, rather than the court taking the initiative to ask them to submit. Otherwise, no matter what happens or not, Jiangdong will definitely not sincerely submit to the Han Dynasty."

"In terms of the general situation of the world, the Han Dynasty already occupies half of the world's territory and is powerful; the Sun family in Jiangdong is just a corner. Our rash mission will not only not make Jiangdong feel at ease, but will make them feel sad. Even if Jiangdong agrees to fight against Cao Jun with the Han Dynasty, there will be differences and conflicts in the unified dispatch. You are a general, so you naturally know that this is a big taboo for military strategists, especially when you are proficient in dealing with Cao Cao, Guo Jia, etc. When you are a soldier."

"Finally, from the perspective of the overall strategic situation, this is an excellent opportunity for the Han Dynasty to rule the world. Our biggest advantage is that Cao Cao is in the open, and we are waiting in the dark. Once we send envoys to Jiangdong, we will definitely be defeated by Cao Cao." His subordinate Jing'an Cao learned about it. Now Cao Jun and Jiangdong are just facing each other across the river, and have not really attacked yet. If Cao Cao finds out about our intention at this time, then Cao Cao retreats on his own initiative and sends an apology to the Han Dynasty. I can take this again What can the head of the country do?"

Liu Xie's three points were layered on top of each other, and Zhao Yun felt terrified when one of them compared with the other.He really didn't expect that such a dangerous torrent was brewing under the calm surface.For a while, after carefully digesting Liu Xie's words, he said with a serious face: "In this way, we can only wait for it to be silent rather than moving. As the little friend Zhuge said, the dragon lies in the deep, Waiting time?"

"That's right, every sentence that the expert said has a ulterior motive." Liu Xie nodded, and then added a superfluous sentence: "For example, everything I do has a deep meaning..."

Now Zhao Yun couldn't help pursing his lips, a smile appeared on his sad face, and he couldn't help but glance at Liu Xie.However, he quickly frowned again, and looked towards the direction of the thatched cottage: "But your Majesty has personally entered the thatched cottage to invite you, and is so condescending that this little friend Zhuge is not willing to go out to work for the Han Dynasty. Your Majesty has lived here for a long time. Here, it may be difficult to understand his heart of iron and stone."

As soon as this remark came out, Liu Xie suddenly burst out laughing, looking at the thatched cottage, like a domineering man who is determined to win the woman he likes... No, it seems that he has already won the battle of love, but he is still intoxicated In the joy of not piercing the window paper between the man and the woman: "Zilong, do you remember, I said a word a long time ago. Some people say no, but their bodies are very honest..."

"Your Majesty..." Zhao Yun's face was ashen. He remembered that this sentence was not a good word in Chang'an.

Those dudes who learned Liu Xie's "famous saying" from nowhere often used it to molest women from good families.When these shabby scoundrels were captured and interrogated by Dong Zhao, they plausibly said that they had obeyed the teachings of the emperor. As a result, Dong Zhao laughed grimly and beat those idiots to pieces.

"Don't mention those idiots, everything is lacking in this world, but there will never be any shortage of idiots!" Liu Xie suddenly remembered this from Zhao Yun's expression.But in the end, this was not even an episode, so Liu Xie brought the topic back to the original point and said: "What I mean is, don't talk about what Zhuge Liang said, just watch him do it. He said that he still Small, but without a trace, he made Zhuge Jin a lobbyist of the Han Dynasty. You said that once the war between Cao Cao and Jiangdong started, and the extraordinary achievements of the world were within his reach, he would still sit in this thatched hut empty and become a hermit who worked as a farmer?"

Zhao Yunmao suddenly realized what he had said, and couldn't help but suddenly said: "These days, when the general chats with him, he always compares himself to Guan Zhong and Le Yi. People with such great ambitions are indeed not like those who are willing to wither the old thatched cottage. !"

"That's right, so during this period of time, I can only hide and wait for the occasion." At this moment, Liu Xie looked at the east, and there was a trace of determination and excitement in his eyes: "According to my speculation, these In time, Cao Mengde's plan should be complete, and Jiangdong's countermeasures have also been determined. The earth-shattering battle should start..."

After finishing speaking, Liu Xie stood quietly for a while, until Zhao Yun no longer knew what Liu Xie wanted to do.Liu Xiecai couldn't help holding his chin, and said in a low voice, puzzled, "Strange, according to the plot, as soon as my words are over, there should be Jin Yiwei appearing to inform Cao Cao and Jiangdong that a fight has started?"

Zhao Yun couldn't help being stunned again, thinking silently: Your Majesty, you really think too much...

But just when the two of them smiled and were about to go back to take a bath, a horse riding in brocade clothes really came winding from the rising sun.Immediately, the knight looked excited, and waved a battle report with one hand: "Your Majesty, the latest battle report between Cao Jun and Jiangdong, the two families have launched a probing battle with the Yangtze River!"

At this moment, Liu Xie was ecstatic, and actually ran forward to respond to the secret report in person.But Zhao Yun couldn't help but looked up at the sky, with a suspicious expression on his face: this kind of thing is too evil, right?
